After Putin... Prigozhin? I think the West should remember the old saying, out of the frying pan, into the fire. Prigozhin, basically thinks that Russia has been conducting the war all wrong from the beginning and this has cost tens of thousands of lives unecessarily. Why? Why is Russia fighting with one hand tied behind its back? It it's a war between Russia and the West, why aren't we making the West pay a price for their intervention? Put the entire nation on a real war footing... totally, and start fighting the war, totally. Make the West suffer and bleed too. Starting attacking the supply lines and cut all of Ukraine's links with the West. Divert all of societies resources to the war effort and start by confiscating the wealth of the elite oligarchs in Moscow. Prigozhin's emotional rants communicate his patriotism and his hatred of the current elite-ruled system and he speaks to the hearts of ordinary Russians. He's cleverly carved out a populist image for himself that can lead him all the way to the throne in the Kremlin. One would be foolish to underestimate the amount of traction he has among the Russian masses.
